  • Talking about Rose (Rosa 'Dr. Huey'), StarlightCat wrote:
    I had bought what I thought was a white iceberg rose from Tractor Supply. The first two years, the rose was a long-stemmed yellow rose. Obviously, the graft wasn't even an iceberg rose! Then, this year, the graft must have died and the rootstock just exploded! My research indicates that Dr. Huey roses are often used for rootstock because the roots are so tenacious. Unfortunately, it only blooms once a year for the most part and then the spent canes apparently develop black spot, which has been happening to mine. The recommendation is to prune back the spent canes as it only flowers on the 1-year-old growth. So, if you want more flowers next year then you'll need to stop wasting energy on spent canes and prune immediately after blooms are spent. I was hoping to get a rose that I could use to collect rose petals so I had wanted an iceberg as they are prolific. However, this dark red (rather than white) bloom is also stunning in how deep red and velvety it is and also seems to resist sun bleaching. So, I think I'm going to keep this rose anyway as it's much better than the long-stemmed yellow rose. I will collect so many petals for my crafts!

    It's a small and particular rose. More than once I noticed that the second bloom may occur in just one full color (yellow on mine, I read elsewhere that it can bloom also only in red) instead of the striped one.
  • Strong plant that blooms repeatedly. The flowers' shape resembles tulips.
    The colors may vary from yellow to apricot.

    Very colorful rose with flaming effect... when the corolla is completely open, the flower color turns to fluo coral pink!
  • Talking about Rose (Rosa 'Today'), rickycr wrote:
    A very particular orange rose, the color of which seems to get fluo. It's strong and it keeps on blooming during the season.
